Haiku Poem For the Dance

This weeks poem assignment at Poetry Dance is to write a Haiku Poem about a journal that you are fond of. I had a hard time deciding, as I love you all...but one inparticular that stands out to me as always being one of my favorites is Rebecca's journal http://journals.aol.com/JustAName4Me2/InTheShadowOfTheIris/

When I first found her journal, I was so happy to see another mom who takes her girls fishing! Flyfishing no less! I was hooked!

I'd be interested to hear another one about the fishing. Since haiku poems are an art based on the quickness of one moment and nature, fly fishing would be perfect.

you should do another.

rebecca certainly does make a person think twice, eh?if you tried the single line form also and put some effort into word choice, i bet you could stand it straight up like a fishing pole and also make it a visual poem (what are those called again? drat.) I've seen a few, one about butterflies where the words make the outline of a butterfly, they have a specific name but the word escapes me.

Oh... I am a big fan of Rebecca's Journal as well. She is very creative. Good journal and good choice... and I agree that seeing you do a haiku on fishing would be nice. :) Up to it? ::grins::Dawnhttp://journals.aol.com/auburndawn/PoetryDance/http://journals.aol.com/auburndawn/DawnsDrivel/
